This Creamy Mushroom Beef Chuck Roast is a comforting slow-cooked dish featuring tender beef chuck roast simmered with mushrooms, garlic, and rich cream. The beef is first browned to develop deep flavors, then slow cooked with mushrooms and a creamy sauce until melt-in-your-mouth tender, making it perfect for a hearty family meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Beef Roast

  • 3 to 4 pounds beef chuck roast

Mushroom Mixture

  • 8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Brown the Beef: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the beef chuck roast on all sides until it develops a rich, brown crust. This step seals in the juices and builds flavor. Once browned, transfer the roast to your slow cooker.
  2. Add Mushrooms and Cream: In the same skillet, sauté the sliced mushrooms with minced garlic until fragrant and softened. Pour in the heavy cream and stir to combine, letting it warm slightly. Then, pour this creamy mushroom mixture over the browned beef in the slow cooker.
  3. Slow Cook Until Tender: Cover the slow cooker and cook the beef on low for 6 to 8 hours, or until the meat is fork-tender and infused with the creamy mushroom sauce. The slow cooking ensures the beef is juicy and perfectly tender.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, consider adding a splash of beef broth or red wine to the cream and mushrooms before slow cooking.
  • You can use baby bella mushrooms for a deeper flavor or white button mushrooms for a milder taste.
  • Serve with mashed potatoes or creamy polenta to soak up the delicious sauce.
  • Make sure not to skip browning the beef, as it adds essential depth to the dish.
